Axial Cross Section CT

Below is a CT image stack in the axial plane.  

• Start by clicking on the slide deck in order to be able to advance the slides slice by slice distally through the CT stack.  

• Click on the link on slide 1 to align the VH dissector axial view with the CT scan level.

• Click on the VH Dissector window and hover over structures so their label comes up.  If you do not see labels, then go to the view tab and click 'show labels.'  See if you can match up structures to identify more structures in the CT image.

• Click down the CT stack slide by slide.  When you move to another slide, you can then go back to the axial VH dissector image, and arrow up or down to follow along. 

• Every few images, we provide a link so you can easily realign the two images. On this stack, Slide 1, Slide 42, Slide 96 all have links.
